Pets: Wild At Heart
We may think of our pets like another member of the family - but they exist in a secret world that we would hardly recognise. In this series new filming techniques reveal our pets' wild behaviour and natural abilities. Using the latest filming techniques, from spycams to thermal imaging and moving x-rays, this series reveals why just a small select group of animals have the perfect characteristics to become human companions. The first episode shows how our pets use play to get in touch with their wild side, while the second episode shows how our pets maintain links with their wild nature.
Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

OH MY GOD HE TALKS IN HIS SLEEP IF THATS NOT THE CUTEST YET CREEPIEST THING TO HEAR AT NIGHT
I had a male that chattered in his sleep incessantly.
Christine Colley my parakeet likes to make very quiet whistling noises when he goes to sleep.
@@elirien4264 thats amazing! I have 2 sweet little males that i love dearly but i only found out now that some other budgies talk in their sleep!!
@@elirien4264 I had a male that talked in his sleep. I'm so glad I finally got divorced.
They don't talk at night.
“I’m a Doctor, not a parakeet”
Now hold up...
Wait a minute! 😆
"I realize it doesn't actually say 'Colonel' anywhere on my uniform, but it should"....
My cage is bigger on the inside ;)
Oh no..he's trapped.
Especially amazing that this is narrated by David Tennant 😀
That “goodnight disco” at the end is wholesome
soo cute when he said "good night disco" to himself while being asleep 🥰 an adorable little parakeet❣️
Not a parakeet. Budgie!
Parakeet and budgie are used interchangeably. Yes, a budgie is a type of parakeet, but they’re the same thing here in the US
@@Yourlocalbacterium Okey. Local naming... Actually handled real parakeets, those with the long feather on the head. They are a lot different from budgies.
@@Stefan_Boerjesson I mean yes, but a budgie is a type of parakeet. Ik there’s other types
@@Stefan_BoerjessonAre you referring to cockatiels? Or maybe cockatoos?
She talks to it like if she was talking into a microphone!
she ate the mic. now she forgot to wash teeth.
It’s a boy- you can tell by the blue nose
@@kashinimeyo theyre talking about the owner
That is how you do it to get them talking. This budgie unfortunately died in 2017, he was the best mimicker in the birdworld.
Except, the owner doesn't tap her on the head and say, "Is this thing on?"
He mimics such a long sentences, it's incredible.
I’d feel scared saying anything around it
@Reap Dude Mine is kind of the opposite. I got a lone budgie first, and she will only "talk" and babble to the newer budgie....who pecks at her, because she doesn't like it one bit. Only when the older chirps will newer budgie "listen" to her. Anything else, the newer budgie will just peck at her, or fly away. As for the other birds in the house, the older talking budgie will follow them around and talk in their faces, or to anyone who will listen, even humans, plants and toys.
Can Only Have 1 🐦 Bird!!
humans forget long sentences.
@Reap Dude Thanks for the info. I actually didn't know that they could mimic people since I've never seen them do that. (I don't own any, have only ever seen them at other people's houses so yeah)
Disco: "My name is Disco."
My budgies: *Screech at me and throw seed all over my floor*
Watch lots of videos about budgie care. and make a seed guard. :)
This bird speaks English better than me. And his English is so clear
Same here 😂
Mine has begun talking and its sure is funny. Today I gave him food and he said thank you at the right time.
@@tamaraj4200 That's awesome! Is your budgie an English budgie or some other variety? Really curious to know.. Even I am planning to own one :)
"You're a little short for a stormtrooper" - To the dog 😂
🤣😂 Best comment ever.
Disco passed away in 2017. Loved watching all his videos on his RUclips channel.
RIP Disco. I watched the videos of him posted for a long time. What a good baby bird!
F
pour one out for my mans
How'd you know I was gonna search if Disco was still with us? 😭 RIP sweet baby biiiiirrrd.
NO
Do you know how old he was when he died and was it of natural causes? What an amazing little fellow he was!
The dog's face lmao 😂 it's like "I'm not a cat for the 100th time"
M E O W
Love the face the dog makes at him.
In fact they are clever enough to TEASE the dog mentioning the cat
@@Mariamar7878 if it's true, it makes this way more hilarious
F. J. Yes in deed 😊❤️🥰I have parakeets and they are so smart sensible and clever that I assure you he knows what he say why and when they are incredibly lovely
"I am not a crook...I'm a doctor"
This little dude is so cute and funny!
@Cease AndDesist Just like a dentist 🤣🤣🤣
The most underrated pet bird. On multiple occasions I have found escaped pet parakeets in Brooklyn living with flocks of sparrows. I have never known Sparrows to live with other bird species so it was very unusual. On three occasions I was able to use a laundry basket, stick and string to rescue the parakeets before it started getting too cold for them to survive. Don't buy them from pet shops, buy from a breeder so that you can get a hand fed and tame bird.
Yes same, I live Brooklyn and I’ve seen feral parakeets living in the park
@Alchem I agree. I have not had great success with birds that were not hand fed and tame from a young age but I have heard of others who were successful. One woman who had close to 20 birds told me she would clip with feathers so that they could not fly and then she would work on taming them and allow the feathers to grow back. For me, it's also the bond that develops as well as the memories of having that bird from the time it was first discovering the world as a baby. Good luck.
@@xoomvids
Clipping their feathers? 😳
This is terrible and horrible! 🥺
They are birds, they want and need to fly!!
How selfish from this woman!
A real bird lover would tame them with patience!
I have seven budgies.
Four of them fly to me, when i offer millet for them.
The other three don't want to go close to humans, they had bad experiences with humans before.
And that is o.k., they are living creatures, they decide by their own, wether they like to come close or not!
@@xoomvids probably not best to clip the feathers becuse it takes away there way of getting away from potental danger and can couse trust issues
@Biba Ibrahim these would be a type of small parrot,not budgies(also called parakeets by some).Budgies are native to central Australia, and are flourishing as they feed on grain,which is now grown in vast quantities to make a vegetable oil used in australian cars,(it makes the city's smell a little like chip shops!) You can see them flying in huge flocks, just like sparrows/starlings there.
This bird speaks English better than me. And his English is so clear
Samali Roshani Hewavithane Well, the bird mimics a woman speakning fluently engish, so that makes sence
Haha I thought I was the only one
🤡
same here....
The owners annunciation is annoyingly good lol
Disco maybe gone, but he is the cutest birb! May he live in our hearts!
Abrilla 2 M 2017, January, his death was announced and made public in June when people started asking questions and the owners got over his death and were able to finally answer all the questions if he was still alive
❤️
i find it hysterical that he says "My cage is bigger on the inside" and that the one narrating this footage is none other than David Tennant
LMFO
He is also saying he is a doctor lol
Great! Even cannot imagine that a bird can learn up to this level.
@@krishnabiradar2567 Ok
@@BirdyOfficial Love your vids
@Birdy Official It's amazing how God made those cute little birds with such a capacity. :)
Actually budgies can learn up to 1000 words.
Over on my channel, my brilliant blue crown is successfully coparenting “baby yoda” as a Christmas gift, with his brosmate, Lil Homie, our jenday. Our cockatoo is learning ballet, aerial hoop, gymnastics, art like drawing. They ARE that smart & we showcase that every week over on our parrot channel. Disco was a brilliant bird. But he also had a fully engaged life with his family. So they just flourish under that sort of parronting method, which is also one we believe in and try to use on our channel: engaged not caged.
And yes our birds chose which side & saber, if you were wondering, & we’ll be posting video updates all month long. 😉 Birds are such good companions, how they acclimate to life with humans, and their love of interacting. It creates the right conditions for them to learn all sorts of things. Another of our “bird community” friends (disco’s people we’re always super nice to us & we just love them) is teaching her birds to read successfully and just published an amazing study. Our birds make every day a joy and blessing, so we try to educate, but also to continue learning.

Budgies are very cute bird
I'm rewatching the seasons xD
The dog is looking at the budgie like its a demon talking hahaha
love the expression on his face and then he barks to warn the owner "something crazy is out here"
reshmi saha Yeah my bf boxer was scared of my green cheek conure
My collie and my cockatiel are best friends. They like to curl up and take naps and she'll give him rides on her back sometimes.
Budgies expression is so cute
When the dog barks, the parakeet says, "Achoo! I'm a doctor, not a prakeet." haha
the dog looked so confused when disco started talking to him
😂😂😂😂😂 yeah
Disco sounds just like his owner of she recorder her voice with old technology. So cool.
Disco has been dead for a while. RIP disco the budgie.
Source?
😢
MiguelXI thank you for sharing
I was going to say the same thing, but it's nice they posted this. I've loved Disco for years!
MiguelXI Damn.
"Can I has cheezburger"
**spins on the spot**
Animals have a character and a soul!
Respect them and love them as they deserve!❤️🇮🇹🇬🇧🇺🇸
It's funny when the bird said "I'm a doctor!" when the narrator is David Tennant!
Or...that his cage is bigger on the inside.
I didn’t know those little guys could talk like that my goodness
Very hard to teach then talking
Budgies are really surprising in a lot of ways. They are underestimated because of their size.
@@leothelove1 It seems that a budgie or any parrot will decide to talk - or not. It doesn't really seem to be something you can teach, other than talking to them a lot and including them in your life.
@@Ansonidak although with budgies and smaller parrots it takes a lot more training for them to speak with a good clarity
@@birbsgobrr1619
Idk, we had 3 cats and my bird named bob spoke a few times.
Never spoke again after he said here kitty kitty and suddenly 3 cats were at his cage.
3:38 "Goodnight disco"😭
ruclips.net/video/AMv5RGzIq4c/видео.html my budgie is cool
ibra budgie that is very insensitive, you should be ashamed of yourself
RJ Long ಠ_ಠ Screw off snowflake, the damn bird said goodnight and you act like he has lymphoma.
Darkkath well it’s worse than that, the bird died some months ago (which op clearly is referring to) and this person is just advertising their channel like nothing’s wrong. Look into things before you speak.
RJ Long ಠ_ಠ OP? What is this Reddit? Lmao normie. You act like everything is insensitive because someone didn’t reply saying “Boo hoo so sad 😭 😭 😭 “
His owners meme-knowledge is on point.
“I can has cheeseburger?”
I absolutely blame Disco’s human for this
they would take requests from the internet to teach him. Most of them were movie quotes, if you hadn't already noticed.
3:37 "Good night Disco"
That was so emotional❤
That got me right in the feels. What a sweetie
i lolled
He died:(
@@DavidTennantEnthusiastXx really?😥😓

"I am doctor, not a parakeet."

R.I.P. disco. He died not too long ago he was so sweet to watch
Awwwww. :(
YOUR JOKING RIGHT?! right? Right..?
@@ryosxka no i am not joking
Oh I am so sorry! That must have broken your heart.
@@normasouthwood3182 I know 😔
If I had a bird that could talk I would just teach him the phrase: that’s what she said. And then wait until he interrupts a conversation with that
I learned my budgie to say "inquisition" he wasnt good at learning phrases, but pretty good at learning words..
Thanks. I know the next phrase I'm teaching one of my birds.
Its very hard to teach them
@@leothelove1 It just takes patience and love. Lotsa patience.
That's such a sick machoist thing. You're a jack*ss.
what a cute bird
I learned about Disco ages ago. Its lovely hearing his momma's voice...I can hear where he gets his inflections. His momma is smart and so is Disco, they make a great match. ♡
So, no mention of his death years ago?
Not a great match anymore.
Oh god, 'goodnight disco' genuinely made me tear up since I know the poor little dude isn't around anymore. I'm just glad he had SUCH a good life.
Please watch this video on URBAN BIRDS and share your views. (although very amateur work)

Beautiful little Budgie bird :O
lol this is deep into the comments
HI ALEN!!!
@Alen Axp
Did you achieve the same?
What an amazing bird. It's funny how he freaks the dog out.
I find it cute that he talks in his sleep. My bird actually chatters in his sleep. It's a little spooky in the middle of the night lol
2:58 "Are you a little short for a stromtrooper?"
My God, he is so intelligent, he remember word
They all are that intelligent. And they all have the potential to learn to speak.
hE rEmEmbEr wOrd!1!1!1!1!
Never knew budgies coukd talk
This bird is the rarest of all things, a Star Trek and Star Wars fan.
And Doctor Who
And Burn Notice fan
That bird is truly phenomenal. So adorable. He's a little human. No better than human
Cutest thing ever.
The kind of quarantine content I come to RUclips to see.
He's dead, so yeah
ya .. budgies are cute bird
Narrator: is David Tennant
Parakeet: makes a Doctor Who reference
Omg, my cage is bigger inside
Budgie*
@@Dunduckuty the bird even called itself a parakeet so you're wrong
@@nm515 the narrative says budgies are common parakeets. One bird, two names.
prodigalpowtato I thought that was shrek......
You can see he/she is loved by his/her human friends. And this is soooooo lovely. But, as much as we need human company at least every now and then, specially these kind of animals crave for company of their own. In nature, this lovely little creature would live with hundreds of his species. Personally, whenever I have a group animal, I have at least two of them, be it dogs, cats or whatever. As a human being, I cannot replace a furry or feathered friend just because I love him/her.
I agree please let’s spread awareness
My favourites are:
Its a cat, miau, miau.
and
My cage is bigger from the inside.
This bird got great humor! 😂
talking in his sleep was the cutest :)
Sadly Disco passed away unexpectedly. His owners just found him in the bottom of his cage one morning, he had been fine the night before
Disco had his own RUclips channel and you can watch all his videos there.
oh damn, you're talking about your bird! At first I thought you meant "disco" as in, you know, *disco.*
Noo 😞
Rip disco 😭
That happened to our budgies. Not sure what the cause of death was. Neither of our birds talked though.
Disco is dead its true . Years since uve seen a mirror ball and roller skates 🤪🤪🤪
Oh it’s so adorable how he does a somersault when talking to the dog.
That's an Amazing Bird 🐦 DISCO"
Disco is a Genius. He even invents new phrases on his own that make sense. Amazing.
ruclips.net/video/z0RHwTL53h8/видео.html
Oh my gosh he is so well spoken it floors me! So tiny and cute i can't get enough of him. He speaks better than the big parrots, I love him. Take care, and stay healthy and love that boy.
The holder for the world record for most words spoken by a bird is a budgie called Puck in 1995. Budgies are one if not the best talker. They just need time and patience.
Actually after looking more the current holder is also a budgie from Germany called Oskar.
I used to love watching this little birdie! Disco was one of my favorite little parakeets to watch!!!
Aaaww so cute when he says "Goodnight Disco"❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗
Hi❤
Can you imagine the first person to hear their bird talk to them?
They must've flipped shit.
(Me, a veteran of the internet)
Hears "I'm a baby bird!"
"That can't be... is that... DISCO!?!?!?!"
Nobody expects the spanish baby bird!
You sunk my baby bird!
What an adorable, smart little bird! Who wouldn’t be moor cheerful at the sight of a little talking, silly budgie?
He loves her voice and his mimicking is so clear and amazing
Had parakeets growing up and we bonded perfectly Sweet memories

Genius Bird.
Nice Popat
disco was heaven sent. we miss you, sweet little boy.
Amazing what a wonderful bird
I caught a Blue budgie as a young girl who obviously had human owner as he had few words he spoke.
Was made to place an add in paper " no cell phones back then" for few weeks.
With no response my little blue bugle " Joey" became my first pet and friend.
Disco is so pretty with those purple nostrils and cheeks.
But wow what a wonder he is.
Would never get anything done spending all day just playing and loving him which is obvious how your love for him shows.
Thank you for sharing Disco with us. 🐦🐦🐦😇
Hi ❤
It’s sooooooo cute
It's sad having them alone like that, I think he needs a friend.
Edit: A lot of people have commented that the bird is now dead, so the point is lost.
He has his human.
The fact he talks so well, and knows so many phrases, indicates his owner spends a lot of time with him. I don't think he's all that lonely.
@@ganymeade5151 Budgies dont really see their owners as friends. They are very social animals and are always looking for other budgies they can talk to(like their reflections in the mirrors)
I think she’s beautiful 😂😂for him
Ive had birds for like ten years now, i can confidently say that THAT IS A HAPPY BIRD!!! But you are right, birds need a companion, in this case the owner is able to provide that companionship though attention. If they did not have enough time for the bird, thats when getting a second bird would be good.
2:52 Dog: What the fuuuuck
The dog probably thinks Disco is some sort of magical talking bird like some sort of Disney movie!
The nature’s voice recorder
Disco: "I'm a cat, meow, meow!"
Dog: That's a weird looking cat
Disco: 💋💋💋 "Gimme kiss?"
Dog: ...
Disco: "Parakeet has cheeseburger? Are you a little storm, or Storm Trooper, Disco?
Dog: ...
Disco: "I used to be a spy, AND a parakeet! Sure! I'm a doctor, not a parakeet!"
Dog: Mom! Why is this thing talking like you?
Disco: "I did! I'm a doctor! Hehehehehe!"
Dog: Weird flex, but ok

she needs a friend
he died alone
Imagine giving him a partner and they start talking some creepy topics that the owner didn't thought to them
Instead its a creepy thin old guy that lives in their house all this time.
this budgie will make a perfect voice actor
What got my attention was his absolutely amazing cage setup, his owner did a good job
"Goodnight, Disco." AWWWW AHAHAHA
Oh my god he’s so cute this is something I would watch all day
my pet bird was a blessing when my Mom was house bound for many years. Dogs are awesome, but pet birds are super smart. They whistled to each other a lot during the day ( she was terrorized of birds after being attacked by a goose as a child) but she loved my bird.
holy shit if that is not the cutest goddamn thing ever
We had two budgies a few years ago. Very fun and affectionate birds. We adopted them away to a nice woman when we had a long distance move coming up. Neither of them spoke, but they loved to fly around the house, and would often sit on our shoulders and nibble at our ears while we watched TV.
This Budgie is a Genius. I love his voice. Amazing.
This is incredible! He speaks so clearly, he could do voiceover work!
This bird can speak 130 phrases like a pro and my budgie just stands in his food bowl and looks at me.
Maybe because you don't talk to him enough? It takes time for these little guys to learn words! Repeat some stuff around him and show a little more love!
My cockatiels say 'hello' in a squeaky voice every morning, because I greet them every morning and talk to them all the time. Your birb will learn from you, so you need to speak a lot as well.
My bird doesn’t like anybody and I talk to him all the time and he just doesn’t care
3 years and waiting , my budgies have never uttered a word
It's because they are together... Talking in parrots occurs as a hormonal trigger from an attempt to sexually bond with a human. This is why, in most cases, only single birds learn to imitate human voice.
@@Lorettefromchaos not really... We had a pair. One of them learnt speaking ..the other did not
i had 1 parrot at the beggining, it learned to talk and then when i got a second budgie, the first budgie teached him how to talk lol
when he closes his eyes to focus 🥺
So cute!
